Are You Getting the Best Possible Value In Your Silver Medallion Purchases? Not all Silver Medallions Can Function as Genuine Commodity Backed Currencies! Learn How AOCS Barter Medallions can Serve as a Store of Value and Hedge Against Inflation for You and Your Community!
AOCS Mint is a leading provider of AOCS currency pieces, Lakota silver rounds and a wide variety of other AOCS barter medallions that can serve as commodity backed currencies for your community. The most widely circulated pieces are made of .999 fine silver, but they have limited editions of gold and copper medallions suitable for very large and very small purchases.
The most common reason customers cite for purchasing AOCS silver is a desire to convert their dollars into a precious metal which they can keep as a store of value and hedge against inflation. Others enjoy adding the many proof like designed medallions to their coin collections. Still others collect them for the educational and ideological message some of the AOCS silver rounds carry, such as the 2nd and 9th amendment, the Ludwig Von Mises, and the CC2009 commemorative medallions.
You can shop around both the Internet and your local coin and bullion dealers and find a wide variety of silver rounds for sale with business strike finishes or the more expensive shiny proof finishes. Minted silver medallions have engraved text which states the weight and purity of the silver. Most of the time the medallions weigh one troy ounce, though you can also find fractionals, and are made of .999 fine silver. AOCS silver adheres to those quality standards.
AOCS Mint provides some additional benefits to its product line of AOCS barter medallions. First, many of the AOCS barter rounds are minted with a proof-like finish and yet do not reflect a huge price increase. Proof-like American Eagles, on the other hand, come with a hefty price increase. For that reason alone, you get a great value by purchasing your silver from AOCS Mint.
An even more interesting benefit is the face value of most AOCS barter rounds. One ounce silver rounds have a face value of fifty. Half ounce medallions have a face value of twenty-five. Although there are no units associated with the face value, AOCS Mint encourages business owners nationwide to accept AOCS barter medallions in trade for an equivalent amount of dollars worth of product. In other words, AOCS barter rounds are meant to circulate as commodity backed currencies and the face value serves as a guide so that all AOCS silver trades for an equal value of goods or services no matter where they are “spent.”
The face value solves the problems created when people attempt to “buy” products with silver or gold at the ever changing daily spot price. Instead of the silver medallions being seen as items that fluctuate in value with the whims of the commodities market, AOCS barter medallions set the value for what AOCS Mint calls honest trade. This allows AOCS silver to function as true commodity backed currencies which trade at a set value.
So where can you spend your AOCS barter rounds? Currently, several hundred merchants nationwide will accept AOCS silver in trade for their products. Additionally, there are initiatives starting commodity backed currencies using AOCS barter rounds in several communities, including Fort Collins and Boulder, CO, Dallas, Austin and Fort Worth, TX, Atlanta, GA, and the Great Lakes region.
If you plan to visit any of these communities soon, you definitely need to pick up some AOCS barter medallions.
With the uncertainties in our current national and global economy, many people are giving commodity backed currencies a second look. Because they are by definition made outright or backed by a precious metal (the commodity), commodity backed currencies cannot be over inflated or artificially devalued. While the individual silver and gold medallions can serve as a store of value and hedge against inflation for individual customers, commodity backed currencies serve that purpose for the entire community that uses them. AOCS barter medallions serve both purposes.
I wear many hats, one of them being a freelance writer. A few years back the leader of my writer’s group issued the challenge to tell an entire story in exactly six words. The one I penned was “All natural mom addicted to technology.” It got a good laugh out of the other writers, but over the months ahead I realized it could be my autobiography as it describes me to a tee. I love to garden, commune with nature, practice green living and sustainability, and all my babies have worn cloth diapers. My husband and I very much want to homestead and have started in that direction. I also love computers, the Internet and little electronic gadgets of all kinds. Most of the gadgets I don’t own, but you might catch me sitting at my kitchen table with a cup of coffee just drooling over an electronics catalog. Or you might catch me clicking away on my laptop playing one of those ridiculous Facebook games. You guessed it: FrontierVille, that new one where you stake out a virtual homestead.
In a recent flash of inspiration I realized my six word bio would make the perfect blog title. It just about covers everything and that’s more or less what this blog will do. I’m going to post about really neat products available on the Internet that you can buy to make your life a little more fun, interesting, or easier. You’ll read product reviews about plans that can help the modern homesteader build an outbuilding, or slings that can help the babywearing mama also cook a meal. You’ll also read about some cool technological innovations like online dating services and web hosts, and gadgets and gizmos of all kinds. You’ll also read about off the beaten path innovations like commodity backed community currencies and birthday parties in a box. Sometimes I’ll provide reviews; sometimes blatant promotions. In short, if it interests or inspires me, you’ll read about it. The vast majority of the products featured on this site are ones I am marketing as an affiliate, so yes, I have a vested interest in making those products look good. However, they have to be good to begin with for me to want to promote them–there are thousands of product vendors out there competing for affiliate marketers like me.
